  • Publication number: 20220096611
    Abstract: Compositions and methods of using the compositions for wound healing are provided. The compositions include one or more digestive enzymes, for example, one or more protease, lipases, and amylases. The compositions can be formulated as topical pharmaceutical compositions and can be used for faster healing through stimulation of epidermal cells in the absence of scarring. The compositions may deposit a short-term fibrosis and help prevent re-opening of wounds. The compositions may improve recruitment of white blood cells, thereby inducing or enhancing growth factor and immune system activation via an enzyme antibiotic effect. The compositions may enhance the epidermal integrity beyond that of the normal physiological restorative process. Application of the compositions may result in greater re-growth of hair on regions of wounds healed with enzyme and reduced alopecia. The compositions may be administered without causing allergic reactions and without causing biological damage or burns.

  • Publication number: 20210252031
    Abstract: A treatment for autism in which an effective amount of lactulose is administered in order to bind excess ammonia in the gastrointestinal tract, the bloodstream, and the nervous system in order to prevent or reverse ammonia poisoning caused by the administration of certain antibiotics. Lactulose molecules in the colon are fermented by certain bacteria. The fermentation process lowers the colonic pH, and ammonia, in the form of ammonium ions, is used by the bacteria for amino acid and protein synthesis. This lowers the serum ammonia levels and reduces neurotoxicity.
